Henry C. Barton (b. ca1842; AL) Henry moved

in 1869 in TN and later moved to AR.

Margaret Barton (b. ca 1843; AL?)

Walker D. Barton (b. ca 1845; MS) May have moved
to Yalobusha Co., MS by the 1880 census.

Catherine Barton (b. ca 1847; MS?)

Virginia Barton (b. ca 1848; MS?)

Columbus J. Barton (b. ca 1852; MS) Moved to Dyer,

Noah H. Barton (b. ca 1853; MS)

Jane B. Barton (b. ca 1854; MS)

Paralee Barton (b. ca 1857; MS?)

Catherine Barton (b. 11-16-1836; St. Clair Co., AL)
dwatson@texas.net states that
according to Catherine's obituary, she was the dau. of Henry C. and
Rebecca.

I am only assuming that Henderson is the son of Henry C. Barton because Henry
C. had a son that would have been the correct age of Henderson in the 1830
census. Henderson married in 1839 and in the poorly written marriage record
it mentions mother, Martha Henderson, as giving permission for the marriage.

Henderson married Matilda Fortner of Blount Co. She died between 1854 and
1860. By 1860 Henderson lived in Poinsette Co.
AR, then by 1870 he lived in Clark Co. AR and had
remarried. I knew he disappeared from the AR census in 1880. I was contacted
about a year ago by a descendant of one of Henderson's children by his 2nd
wife who stated Henderson died in Indian Territory after 1880, which is now
McCurtain Co. OK.

As for Henry C. Barton, I would love to find info that could connect him
to Henderson.

The following is my research. It probably contains
a lot of the same info as others have found but may be put together with
a little different reasoning. I believe Elizabeth Barton Hartgraves to be
the daughter of Henry Caldwell Barton for the following reasons:

M.W. Blair, born in SC (Michael W. Blair married Martha
Hargroves 10 Jan1850, Barbour Co., Alabama)
Martha A., 31, born in Alabama
Henry W., 4, Alabama
J. W., 11/12, Alabama
Elizabeth Hargrove, 52, born in SC (I believe this is the same Elizabeth
Barton; she is consistent with her age and birthplace, and Martha's maiden
name was Hargroves)

William and Benjamin are R. P.'s two sons by Polly
WILSON. They are William J. and Benjamin S. HARRISON. Robert P. HARRISON
apparently moved around a lot. It looks as if he was in Texas many
years before moving his family to Texas. Even though he is on the 1850 census
for Tippah County, he appears in some records in Texas in the 1840's. After
moving his family to Texas, Catherine died in 1859 at Brazoria County. In
October of 1860 R. P. married the widow Anna HUBBARD HOWE. She was the widow
of Edward Percy HOWE. A descendedent of Anna HUBBARD HOWE currently
living in Blanco county on the old R. P. HARRISON place has some diaries
that were kept by a daughter of Anna H. HOWE. It appears that R. P.
HARRISON and Catherine were friends of the HOWE's from back when the HOWE's
were living in Yabalousha County, MS. Edward was a newspaper man and
had moved his operation to Texas except that the ship they were traveling
on got into some trouble at Indianola, TX and was scuttled, the printing
press being lost. Seems about 10 or 15 years ago some archeologists found
that scuttled ship's remains including the old printing press.

My grandfather was named William Barton Walker. His father was Japheth
Walker often mispronouced Jeptha. He was born in
Pontotoc County Missisippi. I noticed
your Jeptha had a son named Walker. Do you know how the Walker name
connects? I can't figure out where the Barton name connects.
